A side airbag and curtain airbag are designed to deploy when the vehicle suffers a moderateto severe side impact to the middle of the pas- senger compartment. The typical situation is shown in the illustra-tion. The seat belts in your vehicle are your pri- mary means of protection in an accident. The SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) sideairbags and curtain airbags are designed to provide additional protection. Therefore, for
your safety and the safety of all occupants, be sure to always wear your seat belts properly. In certain types of side
collisions, the side air-
bag and curtain airbag may not deploy, evenif the deformation of the body seems to be large, because the vehicle’s body structure is designed to absorb the impact and to deformin order to help protect the occupants. Sometypical situations where the side airbag and curtain airbag may not deploy are shown in the illustrations. Because the side airbags and curtain airbags do not protect the occupant in all types of side collisions, be sure to always wear your seat belts properly.

Only keys that have been programmed to the vehicle’s electronics can be used to start the vehicle. If you lose the key, you can order a key from your authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer by referring to the key number. To prevent vehicle theft, the ID code for thevehicle keys must be changed. Take your vehicle and all remaining keys to your authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer tohave your ID code changed. To add a key, you need to register the ID code to the vehicle. Registering the ID code can be done by your authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer. Or itcan be done by yourself (except for vehicles sold in Canada).
NOTE
 Do not attach additional keys or accessories to the ignition key. Such objects could pre- vent the driver’s knee airbag from inflating normally. Refer to “Deployment of front air- bags” on page 4-29.  In the following cases, the vehicle may not be able to recognize the registered ID codefrom the key. This means the engine will not start even when the key is turned to the “START” position. • When the key contacts a key ring or other metallic or magnetic object (Type A) • When the key grip contacts metal of another key (Type B) • When the key contacts or is close to other immobilizer keys (including keys of othervehicles) (Type C)
 In cases like the above, move the offending object(s) away from the key and turn the key back to the “ACC” or “LOCK” position. Then try to start the
engine again. If the
engine does not start, contact an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer.

 The key may not operate properly when it is near an object or facility that emits strong electromagnetic waves.  Electronic immobilizer is not compatible with commercially available remote startingsystems. Use of commercially available remote starting systems may result in vehicle starting problems and a lo
ss of security pro-
tection.  A system failure is suspected when the igni- tion switch is turned to the “START” posi- tion, and the engine does not start. In such a case, contact an authorized MitsubishiMotors dealer.NOTE

7. On vehicles with manual transaxle, place the gearshift lever in the “N” (Neutral) position. On vehicles with CVT or Twin ClutchSST, make sure the selector lever (CVT)or the gearshift lever (Twin Clutch SST) is in the “P” (PARK) position.
8. Turn the emergency key with the F.A.S.T.-key to the “ON” position and make certain that all warning lights and warning displays are functioning properlybefore starting the engine. 9. Turn the emergency key with the F.A.S.T.-key to the “START” positionwithout pressing the accelerator pedal. Release the emergency key with the F.A.S.T.-key when the engine starts.

gency key.
After several attempts, you may experience that the engine still does not start. 1. Make sure that all electric devices, such as lights, air conditioning blower and rearwindow defogger, are turned off. 2. While depressing the brake pedal on vehi- cles equipped with continuously variabletransmission (CVT) or Twin Clutch SST or the clutch pedal on the vehicles equipped with manual transaxle, press theaccelerator pedal halfway and hold it there, then crank the engine. Release the accelerator pedal, immediately after theengine starts.
NOTE
 For models equipped with a manual trans- axle, the starter will
not operate unless the
clutch pedal is fully depressed (Clutch inter- lock). This is a safety feature.NOTE
 On vehicles with continuously variable transmission (CVT) or Twin Clutch SST, the starter will not operate unless the selector lever (CVT) or the gearshift lever (TwinClutch SST) is in the “P” (PARK) position or the selector lever (CVT) or the gearshift lever (Twin Clutch SST) is in the “N” (NEU-TRAL) position with the brake pedal depressed. For safety reasons, start the engine in the “P” (PARK) position so that the wheels are locked.
NOTE
 Minor noises may be heard on engine start- up. These will disappear as the engine warms up. WA R N I N G Make sure to remove the F.A.S.T.-key from the emergency key after the engine is started. If not removed, the F.A.S.T.-key could fall to the floor, which may interfere with pedal operation.Furthermore, the F.A.S.T.-key could pre- vent the driver’s knee airbag from inflat- ing normally or could be propelled tocause serious injury if the airbag inflates.
NOTE
 When using the emergency key to start the engine, first remove the key from the key holder. If the emergency key is attached to a key holder (key ring), it may become impos- sible to insert the keyless operation key intothe emergency key, and it may prevent the engine from being started.
